A Timeless, Poetic Ballad That Resonates with Hearts Around the World
With Beautiful and Real, singer-songwriter Ira Lawrence Rosoff delivers a heartfelt and evocative single that perfectly captures the raw, universal emotions of love. Released on Valentine’s Day, the song is a celebration of connection, longing, and the irreplaceable presence of love in human life. Drawing inspiration from musical greats like Pink Floyd and The Beatles, Rosoff blends modern production with a nostalgic touch, creating a song that feels fresh yet familiar—a rare balance that makes it instantly timeless.
At its core, Beautiful and Real is more than just a love song; it is a poetic meditation on relationships and the deep, sometimes indescribable, meaning they hold. Co-written by Rosoff and longtime friend and collaborator Bo Intrator, the track weaves together vivid storytelling with a melody that gently tugs at the heartstrings. The final version of the song benefits from the expertise of Grammy-nominated producer Rick Chudacoff, alongside James Wold and Christian Cullen, Rosoff’s former bandmates from Wheels. To complete the magic, Grammy Award-winning engineer Steve Marcantonio was brought in for the final mix, ensuring a polished yet deeply emotional sound.
For Rosoff, music has always been a personal and transformative journey. Raised in Orlando, Florida, he was immersed in music from an early age, heavily influenced by his father, a doctor with a deep love for songwriting. That passion took Rosoff through different genres and styles, culminating in the formation of his band, Wheels, in 2003. Alongside Christian Mathew Cullen and James Wold, the trio created music that left an impact on the indie scene. However, fate took an unexpected turn when Rosoff suffered severe brain damage due to an accident, forcing him to put his musical career on hold.
Despite the immense challenges he faced, Rosoff never lost his passion for music. With encouragement from close friends—particularly Bo Intrator, a versatile writer and film producer—he found the courage to return to music seven years later. That moment reignited his career, leading him to record three full-length albums:
- Yellow, Orange, Red, and Blue
- Smiley Face
- Count To Ten
Each record represents Rosoff’s resilience, artistic growth, and commitment to creating music that connects with people on a deeply emotional level. With Beautiful and Real serving as the lead single from Count To Ten, Rosoff invites listeners into a world where love is more than just an idea—it’s an experience that shapes us, challenges us, and ultimately, completes us.
For fans of meaningful, melody-driven music, Beautiful and Real is a must-listen. Experience the single on Spotify, YouTube, and other streaming platforms. Stay connected with Ira Lawrence Rosoff on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram for updates on upcoming music.
